Another path to consider is integrating HT sound with the music system. I use an Oppo BDP-105 as the source for Blu-ray and DirecTV HD-DVR. Analog stereo from the Oppo goes through a Parasound JC-2 preamp to Proceed HPA amps that drive a pair of KEF Reference 107/2s. Surround from the Oppo goes directly the HPA amps that drive KEF Reference 102s. SW goes to a pair of Velodyne SMS-1s that manage a pair of HGS-15s. For stereo music the JC-2 is switched from the Oppo to an Ayre C-5xeMP or JC-3 phono stage. The SMS-1s provide acoustic room correction for the critical LFs.
